Melinda GatesI care much more about saving the lives of mothers and babies than I do about a fancy museum somewhere.
Melinda GatesI've travelled extensively in the last 16 years - to slums in Bangladesh, to townships in South Africa, to all kinds of places in India, etc. When I would go and talk to villagers about something like vaccines, if I stayed long enough, the women would bring the conversation around and say: "What about this family planning tool? We can't keep having the number of children we're having."
